Impossible Things without Steel

Steel with its
durable yet flexible nature has effortlessly blended itself in the modern
society as a dependable raw material for projects across various
industries.

Steel has shaped
and acted as a catalyst in the modern society with its implications for complex
projects.

VKICL has listed
down a few things, which would be impossible to imagine without our beloved
steel.

1.Razor
Blade – Ask any modern day man, how a clean shave boosts his confidence at
workplace and how important it is to find a comfortable razor for the same. The
blades in razor blades are made up of stainless steel and provide a sharp edge for
a clean shave, and its anti-rust property makes its safe for cosmetic use.

2.Steel
Chains - A simple design break through make steel chains more durable and
strong rather than regular ropes. The moulds on the each bracket increase the
overall breaking threshold of the rope or chain making it ideal for high
strength projects.

3.Steel
Ropes in Bridges – Traditional lever bridges have high tensile steel used in
them for support. This steel provided the much required strength it requires
from the steel cables.

4.Steel
Beams in Construction – Modern day sky scrapers and buildings use steel rods
for construction which gives them the required strength to hold on for decades.

5.Brake
Discs – The brake discs in almost all modes of transport have steel plates as
brakes. Owing to the high melting point, it acts as a great friction surface
for vehicles to get their speed lower.

6.Storage
Cells / Containers – Most mega F&B
factories which use liquid for storage or raw material use huge stainless steel
containers for the purpose. Since its not reactive with most of the liquids and
food products, it doesn’t chemically react with the product stored. Milk in
dairy factories is stored in such cells.

7.Safety
Pin – A small yet old invention which has helped the mankind since ages, safety
pin, is made up of stainless steel. It makes it flexible, strong and long
lasting. Even in small sizes the steel used retains its properties.

8.Steel
Wheels – Modern day train wheels are made up of steel which makes them durable
for long journeys with heavy loads.

9.Steel
Safes – A durable companion for keeping your valuables safe. Since over a
century now, steel safes are still famous and trust worthy to keep precious
belongings safe.

10.Arresting
Cables - Arresting cables on modern day aircraft carriers enable fighter
aircrafts land in an extremely short landing distance surface. A hook from the
aircraft is lowered just before the landing which gets caught in one of the
arresting cables lying on the ground. The ropes or cables have to bear with
tremendous pressure, landing after landing.
